Hadith 34267
٣٤٢٦٧ - حدثنا يعلى بن عبيد عن أبي منين وهو يزيد بن كيسان عن أبي حازم عن أبي هريرة قال: قال (رسول اللَّه) (١) ﷺ: "لأدفعن الراية (اليوم) (٢) إلى رجل يحب اللَّه ورسوله"، قال: فتطاول القوم فقال: "أين علي؟ " فقالوا: يشتكي عينيه، فدعاه فبزق في كفيه ومسح بهما عين علي ثم دفع إليه الراية ففتح اللَّه عليه يومئذ (٣).
Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Surely, today I will definitely give the flag to a person who loves Allah and His Messenger (peace be upon him)." The narrator says: So people started raising their feet to show themselves. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Where is Ali (may Allah be pleased with him)?" People submitted: "He has pain in both his eyes." The Prophet (peace be upon him) called him and put his blessed saliva in his palm and rubbed it on both eyes of Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) gave him the flag. Thus, on that very day, Allah granted him victory.
